A wood burning fire pit table puts a real wood fire inside a wide surround you can rest a drink or plate on. Most add a lid that turns the table into a coffee table when the fire is out, and several include grills.
These are wood fires, so they need open air, a noncombustible surface and the clearances in the manual. For gas tables, see Best Propane Fire Pit Tables; for more wood options, see Best Fire Pit Tables and Best Fire Pits with Grill, or browse the Fire Pit Tables category.

OutVue sets a 24-inch fire bowl inside a 36-inch round tabletop and adds two height-adjustable swivel grills, a lid, a poker and a round waterproof cover. With the lid on it works as a table. OutVue says the bowl holds up to 20 lb of wood. Owners like the size and the grills, though one 4-star excerpt worries the metal is thin.
A well-equipped cooking fire pit that gives a lot for its size; inspect the hardware during assembly.
Amazon rating: 4.3 stars from more than 2,900 ratings (70% 5-star, 7% 1-star).
Use any wood or charcoal fire pit outdoors only, in open air, on a level, noncombustible surface such as stone, brick, concrete or gravel, and keep the clearances listed in its manual from the house, fences, overhangs, trees and anything that can burn. Do not use it under a roof, awning, pergola or gazebo, in a garage or in any enclosed or covered space: burning fuel gives off smoke and carbon monoxide that need open-air ventilation. Keep children and pets back, never leave a fire unattended, keep water, a hose or an extinguisher within reach, and let ashes cool completely before emptying them into a metal container. Burn bans, fire codes and HOA rules vary, so check what applies where you live.

Cons

How to Choose a Wood Burning Fire Pit Table
Size and Seating
Larger tables seat more people and give more ledge space, but need more clearance around them.
Lid, Grill and Screen
A lid turns the table into furniture, grills add cooking, and a screen or mesh surround helps contain sparks.
Drainage and Covers
Painted steel tables last longer if covered once cold and kept from holding rainwater. Removable bowls make emptying easier.
Weight
Light tables are easy to move but thinner. Heavier tables usually last longer.
Safety First
Use any wood or charcoal fire pit outdoors only, in open air, on a level, noncombustible surface such as stone, brick, concrete or gravel, and keep the clearances listed in its manual from the house, fences, overhangs, trees and anything that can burn. Do not use it under a roof, awning, pergola or gazebo, in a garage or in any enclosed or covered space: burning fuel gives off smoke and carbon monoxide that need open-air ventilation. Keep children and pets back, never leave a fire unattended, keep water, a hose or an extinguisher within reach, and let ashes cool completely before emptying them into a metal container. Burn bans, fire codes and HOA rules vary, so check what applies where you live.
How We Evaluate Fire Pit Products
For this guide we compared listings on size and shape, included grills, lids, screens and covers, bowl design, weight, the maker's safety instructions and rating history. We read each maker's specifications, safety notes and warranty terms, looked at the rating history and star spread, and read the supplied owner review excerpts for recurring build, fit or assembly problems. We did not handle or measure these products ourselves, every figure comes from the maker's listing, and we never repeat a safety, weather or burn-ban claim as our own.
Variants of one listing count as a single product, and we would rather list a few strong picks than pad the list. Our full process is on the How We Review page.
FAQ
Can I put the lid on while the fire is burning?
No. Put the lid on only once the fire is out and the bowl is cold, unless the maker says otherwise.
Can I use a wood fire table under a covered patio?
No. Wood fire tables need open air, away from roofs, awnings and overhangs.
How do I stop my fire table from rusting?
Empty ash and water, let it dry and keep it covered once cold.
Final Verdict
The OutVue 36-inch table is the most complete wood fire table for most patios. Choose the OutVue 26-inch for a small space, the FansaFurn for a large group, or the Panovue for a square layout.
